Great service from the time we got picked up from the airport until the time we left. Daily breakfast is a plus, esp the Freddo cappuccino. Walkable to restaurants and a 24 hour market where they serve hot foods to snacks- this was beneficial esp when dealing with jet lag. Quiet and safe area, which is a treat after visiting Oia or Fira. Would recommend this hotel to anyone.

Excellent service. We stayed in the two bedroom suite with pool. Lots of room for the 3 of us. View was incredible. Our taxi driver called hotel and coordinated the pick up spot where they came to grab our bags. Lots of steps but that’s pretty normal for most hotels. I highly recommend this location. So relaxing but also close to restaurants and things to see and do.Staff helpful and food was really great. Best breakfast out of all the other properties during our trip.

We loved every second of it. Our view was spectacular, service was top notch and food was great! we spent all day just staring at Caldera. Close to everything and only a 15-20 min walk to Fira. Would come here again and again!

Great 4 day stay at The Rocks Hotel celebrating a friends birthday. All staff at the hotel were friendly and helpful. The food (room service breakfast and poolside lunch) and drinks were delicious. The pool area is rather small and can be full if all guest are out enjoying it. The location is great, away from the busy Fira but close enough to walk there. Many restaurants near the hotel to choose from. Views from the hotel are amazing. Highly recommend staying here.

We traveled 10 hours on a plane to what we thought was advertised as a luxury hotel, but our room at $500 a night for 6 nights was anything but luxurious. The hotel overbooked and gave our ‘Caldera Suite without a hot tub’ to someone else. Instead, we received a hazardously damp basement room unfit to occupy which reeked of mold and chlorine, with a huge dirty hot tub with sand in it from the previous tenants, and a nonfunctioning humidifier full of water, contrary to the hotel’s claims of rigorous cleaning between tenants. Our socks and luggage were wet with humidity as was every surface in the room. The ceilings were hazardously low near the bathroom and luggage storage areas where we kept bumping our heads (I’m only 5’6”). There were two chairs and a table in the room facing an ugly wall instead of being outside on the balcony with a view of the Caldera as promised. The receptionist told us that a lot of people didn’t like that room and we had to change rooms 3 times in a 6 night stay due to maintenance issues including no hot water for showers, not well-maintained hot tubs which we didn’t want/nor use but were forced to deal with (we had to constantly empty the humidifiers, at least 6 times, sometimes in the middle of the night, and there was constant dripping sound which made it hard to sleep) and a power outage that left us in complete darkness. We stayed at 2 other hotels in Greece for 3 and 5 nights respectively with no accommodation problems or issues.
